I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
“Safe America,” a so-called media company, was incorporated just 11 days before it was handed $143 million in taxpayer money to produce a propaganda campaign starring cosplay Barbie.
And the company’s listed address? The Virginia home of longtime Republican operative Michael McElwain.
Eleven days old.
No track record.
$143 million contract.
This isn’t government. It’s a taxpayer-funded cash grab for political insiders. While Americans struggle to pay rent and groceries, Trump’s circle is handing nine-figure checks to their friends and calling it patriotism.
Hey Karoline: fact check!
US soybeans were sold to China under Biden.
They declined after Trump won the election, and halted when he introduced his “judgement day” tariffs.
That’s why your ‘Dear Leader🫡’ has to now do farmer bailouts!
ICE arrest U.S. citizen father of 4—locking him up in jail for almost a week.
"One of the agents pointed at me and said, 'Just get him, he's Mexican,'" he explained.
Security camera footage proved he didn't "resist" agents—but they still tackled him to ground bloodying his arm.
His attorneys are worried because the charges were dropped "without prejudice"—so prosecutors can still refile charges at any time.
Javier Ramirez says he has been traumatized—constantly looking over his shoulder in his hometown of Montebello, California.
"They are literally racial profiling us. If you even look Latino, they will come and get you," he concluded. #DemsUnited
If it’s true that Trump wasn’t briefed on four missing — presumed dead — soldiers in a Lithuania, someone needs to be fired.
There’s not much higher on the priority list than MIA soldiers. Whoever dropped the ball there is failing POTUS in an inexcusable way.
The government was never meant to be run like a company. Its bottom line isn’t profit margins, it’s people.
The notion that the government should be run like a business is an absurd one.
NEW: Signal has never been permitted on White House or Pentagon devices, but incoming Trump officials started using it when the Trump-Vance transition refused government IT help to avoid record-keeping laws and kept using it after Inauguration Day. https://t.co/XxvL7Y7BZm
This is getting overlooked, but the whole premise of Trump's threat of tariffs is based on a lie. He's claiming Mexico must be bullied into stopping migrants. But Mexico is *already* doing this. That's a big reason crossings have dropped. 1/

This gentleman asked MAGA fascists for examples of countries with Trump-style policies that are thriving today. The ignorance of these fascist imbeciles will surprise no one. 😳👇
Stock markets at record highs, low unemployment, wage growth exceeds inflation, the best handling of inflation of any G7 nation, energy independence, and I can go on and on and on...But no matter how this result lands, whether VP Harris ekes this out or not, it is amazing how unappreciated successful governance was in this election and how Americans are so willing to bring back into office the guy who caused all the destruction.
NEVER FORGET:
Not one Republican officeholder who objected to Biden’s victory has objected to their own wins on the same day, on the same ballots, using the same election systems.
INFORMATION WARFARE: Conspiracy to Interfere.
A page by page read of the Mueller indictments detailing Russian military campaigns to deprive America of its first woman President.
Thread.
1/ IRA Indictment.
“We had a slight crisis here at work: the FBI busted our activity.”
Slotkin: What you are saying and saying
in front of the American people is you believe a veteran who has been raped, who is a victim of incest or who is having a dangerous miscarriage does not deserve access to abortion.. Who do you think you are?
